On Friday the 5th October 2018, Scouts Australia apologised to survivors of child sexual abuse in Scouting. Making this apology is part of Scouts Australia’s commitment to acknowledge and address the harm that some of its members have suffered through Scouting.

The Chief Commissioner of Australia, Phil Harrison made the apology on behalf of all State and Territory Branch Chief Commissioners.

Congratulations to the recipients of the Scouts WA Adult Recognition Awards 2018, an opportunity for fellow Scouts to acknowledge and recognise the hard work and dedication of their peers to support our youth members.
